[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 414781, member: 21149"] HI. If your Dad really is keeping his sugars within 5-7mmol 2 hours after food then he's fine. Ask him what his last annual HBa1C blood test was. If it's below 7.5% then he's not dangerously high and if he's below 6.5% that would be excellent. Yes, he's having a lot of sugar in his food but if his sugar readings are in a good range then you don't need to worry yet, but of course he may continue to drift back. All you can do is guide him towards cakes and so on that still taste sweet'ish but have no added sugar. My wife makes Molly Cake (Google it). It has no added sugar; just fruit. [/QUOTE]
